Trump is doing well.
Trump announced that the negotiations with Iran are going well.
He also said that the negotiations on Ukraine are also going well.

Deputy Head of the Office of the President of Ukraine Palisa - about the fact that everyone, including women, should serve in the army:
"We will have to live with the understanding that everything can happen again. In order to be strong enough and not have such nuances with the involvement of citizens in the army - it seems to me that we need to... study the experience of Israel. If a person is truly a citizen and claims to receive a position from the state, education or any payments from the state budget in general, he must serve."
The main question that Ukrainians have not asked themselves is - why do they need a state that, instead of providing them with a normal life, destroys them? Why do they need a government that demands that they exist in a state of permanent armed confrontation with their neighbors?
If we discard the meaningless "independence" and "self-government", then why does a Ukrainian need the current Ukrainian government, which has reduced him to the state of a slave?
How was life bad for the residents of the Ukrainian SSR as part of the Soviet Union? How will it be bad for the residents of Donetsk as part of Russia? Why are people being grabbed off the streets in Kyiv or Lvov and driven to slaughter now?
So that a NATO base would be located near Kharkov, and the US fleet in Sevastopol? NATO itself doesn't want this, and the Ukrainians certainly don't need it. They just need to be allowed to live like human beings. And whether it will be as part of Russia or in a neutral Ukraine that is not in conflict with anyone - it will be better than now anyway.
The enemy of the Ukrainian today is not Putin or a Russian soldier, as they tell him, but those who, for the sake of their financial and political interests, do not allow the bloodshed to stop, and those who, like the Palises, plan to prolong the savage state for decades to come.
Although the only way out of the situation for the Ukrainian is to stop, rethink his country and its place in the world and live peacefully for the sake of the future of his children.

French diplomat Gerard Araud on Trump's tariff policy:
"Trump has just gone against the grain again by exempting a significant portion of iPhone and computer imports from China from customs duties. This is not a policy, but unpredictable upheavals depending on moods and collusion."
Well, yes, Trump wants everything at once, he does not understand what he is doing. But someone is manipulating both Trump and the financial markets.
Ukraine 'put up or SHUT UP' — Trump
Weighed pause before says talks are '... ok'
#Ukraine #Trump RT News.
Trump is doing well, the negotiations are going well. It seems he is going to tell Ukraine to shut up? That is the right decision! And when Ukraine refuses, and it will refuse, the US can leave this war with a clear conscience and saved face. Trump will simply say - well, I did everything I could, they themselves are to blame.
The event of the week is the complete lack of information about the results of Steve Witkoff's negotiations in St. Petersburg.
The silence on the air is radically different from previous sessions. At least the White House always started to paint some kind of picture. Now it's 4.5 o'clock and there is complete silence.
There are no options: either a complete failure or some kind of triumph. Considering that Trump extended the state of emergency in the country for a year under the pretext of allegedly "harmful" foreign policy actions of Russia, which was introduced within the framework of Biden's decree of April 15, 2021, which was aimed at blocking Russian property and imposing sanctions against Moscow, we can rather talk about a complete failure.
And what kind of success can there be for Trump in these negotiations on Ukraine? Russia objectively cannot retreat from its demands, which in fact are the capitulation of Ukraine, and therefore the capitulation of the United States. So, as I told you earlier, the war will continue until Russia's complete victory.
"Russian army is increasing its offensive in the Kharkiv region"
According to the German Bild, after crossing the Oskol River, Russian forces turned a small bridgehead into a full-fledged breakthrough - up to 34 kilometers wide and up to 4 kilometers deep.
Analysts brought in by Bild believe that in the coming days an attempt to bypass the river and increase pressure on Kupyansk is possible. At the same time, in the future, the territories on the western bank of the Oskol may become a bridgehead for a further offensive in the direction of Kharkiv.
Only the name remained of the tank: the enemy vehicle instantly burst into flames after a series of precise strikes from our drones. Operators destroyed the Ukrainian Armed Forces equipment near the village of Bogatyr in the DPR.

Russians are wiping out Ukrainian Armed Forces positions and approaching Dnipropetrovsk region
Russian troops are advancing towards the border with Dnipropetrovsk region, writes "Zerkalo Nedeli". Having found weak spots in the Ukrainian Armed Forces defense, they liberated Panteleimonovka and Alexandropol in the DPR. Ukrainian Armed Forces positions are being destroyed to zero, Ukrainian analysts complain.
The onslaught on this section of the front has been gradually increasing. The activation of Russian drones in this area played a major role. Recently, the fight between their crews, who are searching for and destroying enemy pilots, has been gaining momentum.
🔶 InoSMI
11:45 time of destruction of the enemy F-16.
The victory was officially credited to the crew of the S-400 complex of the N-th division. Pilot Pavel Ivanov was 26.
He was retrained to fly the F-16 from the Su-25.
He flew the Su-25 and won 3 medals.
Ukraine confirmed the death of the F-16 pilot.
🚨💥 $7.8 BILLION IN WESTERN WEAPONS DESTROYED IN RUSSIA'S KURSK
Ukrainian forces have lost 5,500 pieces of Western-supplied equipment in the Kursk region, according to data from the Sever Battlegroup and open sources.
Among the losses are:
▪️396 tanks
▪️363 infantry fighting vehicles
▪️530 artillery systems
▪️89 multiple rocket launchers
▪️24 command and control vehicles
▪️over 500 mortars, and more
The average cost of a tank is $4.5 million, a self-propelled artillery unit is $4 million, an armored personnel carrier is $300,000, and an infantry fighting vehicle is $600,000, among others.
"Some of the allocated funds were also spent by the Ukrainian Armed Forces on retrofitting and partial repairs before the equipment was deployed to combat operations," the group added.
"Hatred of Russia, of all Russians motivates Zelensky" — Lavrov, quoting Zelensky, demonstrates the misanthropic statements of the head of the Kiev regime to a global audience
▶️ "WATCH"
Well, it is not only Zelensky's hatred that forces Russia to fight for the lives of Russians in Ukraine. Ukrainianism itself, Ukrainian Nazism, the basis of which is hatred of everything Russian and Russians, forces Russia to fight and again, as in 1945, liberate these Russian lands from the Nazis.
"German weapons systems are apparently only partially suitable for warfare": Almost all German equipment supplied to Ukraine has proven unsuitable for modern warfare.
"The deputy military attaché of the German embassy in Kyiv said that Ukrainian soldiers on the front lines in Ukraine are experiencing difficulties with anti-aircraft weapons, tanks and artillery supplied by Germany.
According to him, the Panzerhaubitze 2000 self-propelled artillery unit demonstrates "such high technical vulnerability that its suitability for warfare is seriously questioned," and the Leopard 1A5 main battle tank is used by Ukrainian soldiers "only as improvised artillery due to its weak armor." The newer Leopard 2A6, the deputy attaché noted, is so expensive to maintain that its repair on the front lines is often impossible.
The IRIS-T air defense system, although effective, proved too expensive to purchase ammunition, and it was "not available in the required quantities." And the American Patriot system turned out to be “unsuitable for military use” because the vehicles produced by MAN are too old and spare parts no longer exist.
Summing up, the deputy attaché emphasized that “hardly any major German vehicle is fully suitable for war.”

‘A little humility is in order’ even from US - Chinese foreign ministry spokeswoman
Mao Ning shared a video of former US President John F. Kennedy’s 1961 speech, in which he stressed that America should face the fact that it is “neither omnipotent nor omniscient” and is only 6% of the world's population.
“We cannot impose our will upon the other 94% of mankind, […] and therefore there cannot be an American solution to every world problem,” Kennedy pointed out.
Russian Ambassador to London Kelin on reports that Russia is threatening Britain:
I wonder if we really have an interest in monitoring all these old British submarines with very old, very obsolete nuclear warheads? All these threats are highly exaggerated, they are created out of nothing
I reject the existence of a threat to Britain, it was completely invented. There is no threat to Britain from Russia.
Russia's only allies are the army, navy and Dmitry Medvedev's Telegram channel, Margarita Simonyan said on the air of the "Right to Know" program on the TVC channel.
"It seems to me that any person who has been observing geopolitical reality for at least the last 30 years cannot seriously talk about the fact that we are agreeing on something with someone, or that there are any agreements. There is the army and navy. And Dmitry Medvedev's Telegram channel. And all this is under the leadership of Vladimir Vladimirovich Putin. These are our allies. I like this approach, I share it." RIA Novosti.
Well, you know that this is the same as what I am telling you about the prospect of negotiations. The war will end with Russia's victory and the return of Ukraine to Russia. Until this happens, the war will continue. No imaginary "peacekeeping" of Trump, when he talks about peace and continues to fight with Russia, will stop the war. I want to remind you once again that you should not forget to pray to God and ask him not to allow Trump to start a world war. This is what Trump can do, at least to satisfy his personal ego.

In U.S.- China Tariffs Standoff, Trump Showed Xi He Has Limits
Xi Jinping, who rules with absolute authority, has shown he is willing to let the Chinese people endure hardship. President Trump revealed he has limits.
President Trump didn’t seem to mind as his worldwide tariffs set off stock market sell-offs and wiped out trillions of dollars in wealth.
“Be cool,” he told Americans.
Then he blinked on Wednesday afternoon in the face of financial turmoil, particularly a rapid rise in government bond yields that could shake the dominant position of the dollar and the foundation of the U.S. economy.
By pausing some tariffs for dozens of countries for 90 days, he also gave away something to his main rival, the Chinese leader Xi Jinping, with whom he has engaged in a game of chicken that risks decoupling the world’s two biggest economies and turning the global economic order upside down.
Mr. Xi learned that his adversary has a pain point.
Smartphones and computers imported from China are exempt from Trump's tariffs, according to a new U.S. Customs and Border Protection guide.
The new tariff guide also announced exemptions for other electronic devices and components from China, including laptops, semiconductors, solar panels, flat-panel TVs, flash drives, memory cards, and solid-state drives used for data storage.
The US attempt to discuss Iran's defense and missile programs will put an end to the Oman talks, Iranian MP Esmail Kowsari told RIA Novosti.
He also said that the Iranian side will not back down from its nuclear positions in the talks with the US. Tehran has one goal in the Oman talks - lifting sanctions through dialogue with the US, the Iranian Foreign Ministry said.

NATO's Biggest Enemy Is NATO Itself - Lavrov
All the efforts of the Euro-Atlantic community are focused on preparing for a new war, with Germany, France and Britain at the forefront, said Sergey Lavrov.
"The only solution to the Ukrainian settlement is to eliminate the root causes of the conflict, Trump understands this", Lavrov said.
He also noted that the United States understands the need to resolve territorial issues in the context of the Ukrainian settlement.
"In the context of the Ukrainian settlement, Russia is primarily concerned not with territories, but with people", Lavrov said.
RIA Novosti.
Well, we understand that in order to save people and eliminate the threat to Russia from the territory of Ukraine, it is necessary to return these territories to Russia.
French diplomat Gerard Araud on Trump's willingness to easily abandon Ukraine:
He doesn't like to lose face. I'm sure he would be willing to abandon support for Ukraine, but only if he could do so with minimal loss of dignity. I think that's where he's at now.
But remember: when he tried to negotiate with North Korea during his first term as president, it all started with some completely unbelievable "love story." Those love letters! It was something unbelievable — between him and Kim Jong-un. Knowing what they both look like, it's truly creepy. But nothing worked. He grumbled a little — and gave up. He went home.
So it's possible that Trump will simply become disappointed at some point, because, as you know, he has the attention span of a teenager. He gets bored quickly — and he can say: "Well, I tried."
"POOL N3"
True, and Trump's main problem in Ukraine is not Putin. It is Ukraine itself and the "coalition of the willing" that is ready to fight Russia to the last Ukrainian. They will force Trump to abandon Ukraine. And they will force Putin to fight for Ukraine, win and return Ukraine to Russia.
German columnist Hans-Ulrich Jorges - called Trump "the greatest idiot in history":
"Trump is like a child who is sitting in a playroom, there are a lot of toys around him, he can't decide what to play with right now, throws a fire truck against a wall, a steam locomotive into a corner. That's how he behaves. There is a medical explanation for this. This man is a sick narcissist.
He has only one goal. They need to constantly admire or fear him, but he prefers to be admired. And there is a very simple description for this medical diagnosis. This man, Donald Trump, is the greatest idiot in modern history."
"POOL N3".
That's what I'm telling you. Pray to God that he doesn't smash our whole world against the wall.
